Welcome Message Not Sent After Transition
Jesse Nahan
I?set up and set as active a welcome message about a week ago for our group (cpsparents).
?
Our transition from Yahoo happened about an hour ago. A "you've been added" notice was sent out, but my active welcome message was not.
?
Any solution or reason for this?
?
Thanks,

How do I complete the transfer?Larry -- Like most aspects of Yahoo Groups, the invitation function can be balky. Several folks have reported here that they had to make several attempts. A hard refresh (Ctrl-F5) just prior to sending may help...or it may not. Do you not have the necessary permissions to send an invitation? Are you getting an error message of some kind? Does it come up with a status page afterward saying that you have 99 invitations left today (usually a sign that it actually went through)? Have you checked your transfer status page to see if it groups.io has received it? Generally, can you be more explicit in telling us what is happening?? Regards, Bruce |

How to avoid calendar hashtags?
Hi, as non-twitterers or other hashtag adorers we in our group are not really amused to constantly see these calender hasttag symbols appear on our frontpage every time the calender has sent out a new event. It seems like a Sysyphus job to have to delete these things every time.Isn?t there a feature where these calender hashtags can be avoided for good? Victoria |
How to find status page for transfer
I am having a terrible time finding the page that gives us the status of our transfer. Could someone step me through this again? I didn¡¯t have trouble earlier this week but I must have forgotten something, We are at stage 3 waiting to be transferred into our premium group.
Thank you! Susan B [Mod Note: Instructions are at /g/GroupManagersForum/message/19948] |
Joining and Login Issues
#addmembers
#membershiprequest
Hello,
I have to issues with a new group (LA Producers).? One is a potential member who is receiving a notice that he is already a member.? He has repeatedly asked for the email to be sent, and it never arrives.? He has checked his junk folder and there's nothing there.? He has his own domain and although there isn't an official web site, the email I send him from my personal email has arrived to him.? I'm attaching the screenshot I asked him to forward to me.? I also tried logging in with his email and got a similar response.? I did a search within our group and he is definitely not a member. 2nd issue.? Another member joined the group added a password and confirmed the email but is seeing "Big Cheap" as the group, not LA Producers.? FYI, "Big Cheap" as far as I can tell based on a search, is not a Group.io.? I asked for a screenshot. Any advice or troubleshooting is welcomed.? Thanks so much. Peter Keenan |
Making members' email addresses invisible
This is the first group provider I have experienced where members' email addresses are displayed to other members by default.
This is surely not a good nor a safe policy for a group, ?because: 1. email addresses can be harvested by those with malign intentions (that is already a pretty risky thing to allow in view of GDPR regulations) 2. group discussions and contacts can be sidetracked into offline or private channels, while the whole idea of the group is 'public' / open discussion and contact. Therefore, how can I ?suppress or make members' email addresses invisible by default to all except Moderators and above? Grateful for any help. Regards John Prescott |
Transfer Progress viewing...
Steve Bass
Now that I'm in the queue (Your group is awaiting import
into Groups.io. There are about 982 groups ahead of it in the queue.
[Step 3 of 4]), I have two questions:
1. I think I know the answer, but is it possible to exclude emails once the transfer has started? 2. At what stage in the transfer process will I begin to see progress notes like this? (I got this from another e-mail here on [GMF].) Date????? ET??? Place in Queue Thu 10/24 0945? 198 Fri 10/25 1200? 101 Sat 10/26 1200? 77 Sun 10/27 1120? 68 Mon 10/28 1330? 56 Tue 10/29 1800? 27 Wed 10/30 1345? 18 Thu 10/30 2341? GROUP TRANSFER COMPLETE! |

Just promote it to Moderator again. Also, it would appear that the agent should be designated "Owner" rather than "Moderator" to accomplish needed transfer tasks.? Where did that idea come from?

Re: reply to sender/group
Frances... In testing our test groups.io system, there are three message situations that are unfortunately inconsistent in terms of "reply to" options. Both the digests and some of the single emails have options for replying directly to Group, Sender, Mute, etc. However, many of the single reply emails have only "View/Reply online, Mute, Group Owner, and Unsubscribe". In this latter case, the user uses their email clients Reply button to reply to group, but the only way to reply to Sender in this case is to follow the online link (log-in, etc.), which is not going to go well with our membership.
My group property is set for "Group" and I have not ticked the "Remove Other Reply Options". I have been trying to figure out why some single emails have the full complement of options and others not. I can't see it. |
Importing data from Vanilla Forums
#importingdata
We've recently joined Groups.io and had a very successful migration from our existing Yahoo Group. However, we'd also like to bring over existing Vanilla Forums archives here as well.
I believe that we can request a MySQL dump from VF, but does anyone have experience importing this into Groups.io? Or can someone point me to further documentation about importing other forums into Groups.io? I haven't had much luck searching the archives for MySQL or Vanilla Forums. Thanks! |
